Course General Description

Working artistically, starting from a material, offers a great variety of possibilities to express and communicate. The area of ceramics is constantly evolving in dialogue with other art areas, society and history, and can include everything from the handmade cup to clay-based performance. During the programme, you will study clay as a material and the concept of ceramic art through different techniques, expressions and contexts. The goal is to develop a familiarity with the material in parallel with your artistic language and a conscious approach to various opportunities to work in the field of ceramic art.
